Undulating almonds?
Professor Akiyoshi Kitaoka from the Department of Psychology at Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, Japan, creates images that will make your head spin.
Through the study science of vision and perception, Kitaoka generates illusionary art.
The website hosts a wealth of vertigo-inducing images and a catalogue that cites various illusion phenomenon.
Note: It is prudent to wait 60 minutes after eating before viewing these images.
Stumble it!

I have seen other images like this in the past. I know Dan Dennet likes to use them in his talks. It would be cool to see more stuff like this.
